Birla Sun Life Special Situations Fund is an open end equity fund that will invest in contrarian picks or stocks where there is potential for unlocking of value due to a corporate action.

Return/risk profile: While the return potential it carries is high, the fund’s risk profile will be also high. The fund is suited only to investors who own other equity products in their portfolio. Stocks in contrarian or special situations can carry significant downside risk if the expected event or unlocking of value doesn’t materialise

Investors can invest a small portion of their funds for diversification, if they feel the theme is interesting. Risk - return proportion is high. BirlaSunlife is having a good number of performing equity funds. Investors who don't have Birla funds may add this to their kitty for diversification .
